M1A1 Abrams

Credited with defeating the vastly inferior Soviet-built T-72s and T-55s Iraq used in the Gulf War, the M1 Abrams is the finest vehicle in the US Cavalry going into the 21st century. The unequaled range and reloading speed of the Rheinmetall 120mm gun, and the thickest, most effective armor of any tank, make the Abrams the most feared vehicle on the battlefield. In addition to the cannon, the Abrams has 2 M2HB support machine guns, and a TOW-II missile defense system built-in. There are rumors of M1A1s constructed with energy weapons, but these are T 120 unconfirmed. The M1A1 takes 70 cells to fully recharge.
